This Week in Caublanasia

Tiger Woods has privately embarrassed his wife, driven into fire hydrant following an incident of some kind, tried to sweep the situation away so as not to further embarrass himself or his wife or his kids publicly and wound up…embarrassing himself and his wife and his kids publicly.

Crappy few days for the world’s best golfer who had this to say on his website

I have let my family down and I regret those transgressions with all of my heart. I have not been true to my values and the behavior my family deserves. I am not without faults and I am far short of perfect. I am dealing with my behavior and personal failings behind closed doors with my family. Those feelings should be shared by us alone.

Not to get all conspiratorial but…this stinks of Phil Mickelson.

Seattle Cop Killer Dead, Sir Mix-A-Lot Relieved

Posted by jon.pittswiley On December - 1 - 2009 4 COMMENTS


Maurice Clemmons, a Seattle man suspected of killing four police officers in the Lakewood police department, was shot early today on by an officer on a “routine patrol.”

Considering all the Blackness that happens, you might expect me to smell a conspiracy or some such, but I don’t. Clemmons apparently had one of the cops’ firearms and, according to the report, approached the officer who did what he needed to do. According to CNN

Clemmons was killed around 2:45 a.m. by a seven-year veteran of the Seattle police force who had noticed a parked stolen car that was unoccupied but running, said Jim Pugil, an assistant Seattle police chief.

The officer approached Clemmons outside the car and asked him to show his hands, but the suspect refused and started to run around the car, Pugil said.

The police officer, who recognized Clemmons from photographs, then shot and killed him, the assistant chief said.

I don’t think there was a conspiracy afoot but I do wonder about the routine patrol story. I get the sense this might’ve been a Bonnie and Clyde-type scenario with ’shoot on sight’ implications. Black dude kills four cops? Four? And takes one officer’s gun? You’re gonna  get folded up for that sort of thing.

I imagine every Black dude in Seattle with a goatee is breathing a sigh of relief right now.
